Grumman F-14 Tomcat
The Grumman F-14 Tomcat is an American supersonic, twin-engine, two-seat, twin-tail, variable-sweep wing fighter aircraft. The Tomcat was developed for the United States Navy's Naval Fighter Experimental (VFX) program after the collapse of the F-111B project. The F-14 was the first of the American Teen Series fighters, which were designed incorporating air combat experience against MiG fighters during the Vietnam War.
The F-14 first flew on 21 December 1970 and made its first deployment in 1974 with the U.S. Navy aboard USS Enterprise (CVN-65), replacing the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II. The F-14 served as the U.S. Navy's primary maritime air superiority fighter, fleet defense interceptor, and tactical aerial reconnaissance platform into the 2000s. The Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night (LANTIRN) pod system was added in the 1990s and the Tomcat began performing precision ground-attack missions.
In the 1980s, F-14s were used as land-based interceptors by the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force during the Iran–Iraq War, where they saw combat against Iraqi warplanes. Iranian F-14s reportedly shot down at least 160 Iraqi aircraft during the war, while only 12 to 16 Tomcats were lost; at least half of these losses were due to accidents.
The Tomcat was retired by U.S. Navy on 22 September 2006, having been supplanted by the Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. The F-14 remains in service with Iran's air force, having been exported to Iran under the Pahlavi regime in 1976. In November 2015, reports emerged of Iranian F-14s flying escort for Russian Tupolev Tu-95, Tu-160, and Tu-22M bombers on air strikes in Syria.

@WAR122 bud since when was the American language ever great at language, If anything it is the most difficult language on the planet aside from Chinese, we are literally the second language that is the hardest language to ever learn if you really think I'm ashamed of how I type just because I type like that you are dead wrong and frankly I don't care
@DimitriIqbal91 Is it, so I don't have to scold my own country?
@WAR122 hahahaha, why you think I am a Chinese? Bad grammar?
@DimitriIqbal91 @ReaperSpitz Are you Chinese?
@ReaperSpitz no, i'm not crying :v i just giving information to him...
Just beautiful! It’s like art
@MobileFriendly do not let others tear you down, I think that this plane is very beautiful and I was able to do my own painting on it it flies like an angel:)
@WAR122 bro you can't just said that to someone, MobileFriendly put so much effort on making this plane and you just commented bad like that? Where's your respect dude
@WAR122 you said mine not good it's okay.. i don't care. But, if you say like that, Can you make something like this? Can you make 3d cockpit? Can you make those Flaps? Can you make that Canards? Can you make that custom gear? Can you make that Airbrake?
I HAVE BUILD THIS PLANE VERY ENTHUSIAST
So please, thinking first before you give comment
@MobileFriendly Your version is not very good.
@WAR122 Just like this, I Tried so hard to make this plane.. Painting is not very IMPORTANT, but manuever and physics is MORE IMPORTANT than painting
@WAR122 i already make that here
